How was the Alaska Gold Rush similar to and different from the California Gold Rush?
I need help with two questions about the Alaska Gold Rush. I just really really don't understand it at all.
1. How was the Alaska Gold Rush similar to and different from the California Gold Rush?
2. What were conditions like for settlers in Alaska? How did they adapt to the new environment?
Thanks you guys so much!
That's not all of my homework. That's just the two questions out of 15 that I didn't understand.
But thank you anyways.
Similarities - Both Alaskan Natives and California Natives were attacked, slaughtered and pushed off of their lands by travelers.
Differences - Alaska Gold Rush was more significant because there were very few people that left with less than $5,000... some even became millionaires! Also, Alaska's gold is still being mined! In fact, my grandfather and family still run a wealthy gold mine every summer.
In California most travelers left with very little more money than they arrived with.
However I'm not going to do all your homework! Do some research you'll appreciate American History more! Have a good day!

Be Aware Of Current Gold Panning Regulations
Gold hunting can be an exciting adventure but you must be aware of the existing gold panning regulations in your region. Setting limitations with this activity is essential in preserving our land and other natural resources.
The Great California Gold jump in 1849 started when a man named James Marshall discovered gold in California. The discovery sent thousand of folk to march into the Californian lands to dig and turn every bit of gravel found. This activity done by literally thousands of people desperate to obtain fast money resulted to ugly consequences.
During those years, violence and injustice become prevalent. With folks getting killed, the natural environment also got murdered. The environment of fishes and other nautical organisms were annihilated due to persistent panning and mining.
Some techniques of gold panning use the component mercury to effectively bring out the gold bits from the black and sticky sand. Too much mercury or improper handling of this element is lethal to human and animal life. So before you set out to do some recreational gold panning, you need to first take a look at the existing gold panning regulations so as not to disobey these rules.
Mercury also has a crushing effect on the natural environment, especially in the nautical home. If you aren't aware, you could end up in difficulty with the Environmental Protection Agency. Another critical thing to consider is the allows and licenses required before you dig.
Take note that some lands are now owned and protected by private individuals. You need to obtain authorization from them if you are allowed to search for gold as well as do your gold panning activities there. If the land is government-owned, you want to seek authorization as well.
Awareness of the present gold panning rules is an absolute must if you need this recreation to be fun and delightful as you would like it to be.
